I love effect when some element on grayscale photo is highlighted
using bright color, for example lips or eyes color on the face, without
changing element texture. I want to show how to do this in Adobe
Photoshop CS2.

I choosed following foreground color for the lips: BC2805. Then I painted
over lips and removed selection. We can enlarge brush size and paint
cheeks a little using the same color. We got attractive girl with red
lips:
